Release-special meeting on dating abuse policy, instruction‏

As per new legislation, we are sending this notice for a public meeting. The Phoenix Union High School District will hold a special meeting regarding “Dating Abuse” policy and instruction, Tuesday, June 28 at 6 p.m. in the Governing Board room at the District office, 4502 N. Central Ave. This meeting will immediately follow a public hearing and special meeting on the budget.

Recent legislation (Senate Bill 1308) has resulted in a legislative mandate to have all school districts review the need for a “Dating Abuse” policy. The mandate requires that the Governing Board hold a public meeting on the possible adoption of a “Dating Abuse” policy and the possible addition of “Dating Abuse” instruction in the health curriculum for students grade nine through twelve. The Phoenix Union High School District currently does not have a dating abuse policy.

The Governing Board appreciates receiving community participation and comments. All interested citizens are invited to attend the public hearing on Dating Abuse policy and instruction, June 28 at 6 p.m. at the Phoenix Union High School District – Board Room, 4502 North Central Avenue, 1st floor, Phoenix, AZ 85012.
